Get ready for the final SAORC showdown this weekend! ACUSA Park in Harrogate, SA, will be the stage for the concluding rounds 5 and 6 of the Yamaha WSB SA Off Road Championship. South Australia’s top off-road racers will come together for two days of fierce competition. This is the season finale you won’t want to miss!
Competitors
With just 17 points separating Max Midwinter, Chad Sparrow, and Sean Throup in the Pro Open Championship, the race is on! Will Max maintain his winning form, or will the arrival of Cooper Sheidow and Victoria’s Liam Mason tip the balance?
If 2024 has taught us anything, it’s that the Expert Open competition is still wide open. Oli Pitchford holds a narrow 7-point lead over Aaron Dent, but with intense competition from Dent and Round 4 winner Royden Harrold, the battle for the final points promises to be thrilling.
In the three Clubman classes, 20 of the top riders from SA and Victoria will be vying for the top spots. Championship frontrunners Ethan Alderton, Thomas Winter, and Kyle Porteous are gearing up for their ultimate showdowns, ensuring fierce competition as they fight for the final points.
This weekend, watch out for the newly crowned AORC Champions: Rowan Pumpa in Masters, Ollie Gear in J4, and Levi Rossi in J2. Also in the mix is AORC J3’s second-place finisher, Harry Gilbertson, as they all set their sights on the 2024 SA Championships.
Adding to the excitement, the Open Women, Veterans, J3, and JJ classes will bring their A-game, making ACUSA Park the ultimate destination for racing fans this weekend.
